The implants were distributed homogenously into three groups, using bone grafts in 12.5% of them.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003A 75% achieved complete consolidation with a mean postsurgical Visual Analog Scale (VAS) of 2.4, Kapandji Opposition Score (KOS) of 8.1, lateral pinch strength of 12.1\u2009kg, tripod pinch strength of 3.6\u2009kg, and tip-to-tip strength of 1.5\u2009kg. Consolidation was not achieved in nine patients, of which five were asymptomatic, three reoperated on trapeziectomy and tenosuspension, and one rearthrodesis. No statistical association was found between the implant used and pseudoarthrosis (p\u2009=\u20090.17), VAS (p\u2009=\u20090.06), or KOS (p\u2009=\u20090.45).<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusions\u2003Trapeziometacarpal arthrodesis reduces pain for well-chosen patients. Nonunion has low clinical significance in most cases and does not seem to depend on the use of allograft or the type of implant but on an appropriate surgical technique.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0043-1764301","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,5]],"date-time":"2023-04-05T23:02:10Z","timestamp":1680735730000},"page":"522-527","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Clinical Outcomes of Trapeziometacarpal Arthrodesis with a Mean 3-Year Follow-up"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7072-7537","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Miguel","family":"Tovar-Bazaga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic and Traumatology Surgery, Hand Surgery and Microsurgery Unit, IIS-Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5540-5801","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aar\u00f3n","family":"Mart\u00ednez-Ulloa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic and Traumatology Surgery, Hand Surgery and Microsurgery Unit, IIS-Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3516-5043","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gonzalo","family":"Luengo-Alonso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic and Traumatology Surgery, Hand Surgery and Microsurgery Unit, IIS-Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rub\u00e9n","family":"Maestro-Carvajal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic and Traumatology Surgery, Hand Surgery and Microsurgery Unit, IIS-Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Javier","family":"Cervera-Irimia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic and Traumatology Surgery, Hand Surgery and Microsurgery Unit, IIS-Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,5]]},"reference":[{"issue":"06","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"248","DOI":"10.1186\/ar3509","article-title":"Imaging modalities in hand osteoarthritis\u2013and perspectives of conventional radiography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasonography","volume":"13","author":"I K Haugen","year":"2011","journal-title":"Arthritis Res Ther"},{"issue":"03","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"324","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(86)80137-X","article-title":"Surgical management of basal joint arthritis of the thumb.
